Previously, only 3 chats could be pinned
Google has launched a fresh innovation for Google Messages, the basic messaging app for Android smartphones. The update expands the ability to pin chats.

You can pin both personal and group chats. A pinned chat will always be visible at the top of the chat list.

When Google first introduced this feature a few years ago, users had a tighter limit of only three chats to pin.
To inform users of this small quality-of-life improvement, after the update, long-pressing a chat will bring up the “Pin up to 5 conversations” tooltip.
